A C-terminal fragment of rat pancreastatin, 26-residue peptide amide was synthesized by the Fmoc-based solid phase method and its biological activity was evaluated for the first time in the conscious rat. Rat pancreastatin inhibited glucose-stimulated insulin secretion and elevated blood glucose levels in a concentration of 10 nmol/kg/h. The relative molar potency of that of porcine is equivalent. This study suggests that the synthetic rat pancreastatin has a biological activity, and may play a physiological role in the endocrine pancreas.
采用基于Fmoc的固相法合成了大鼠胰抑制素的C末端片段(一种26个残基的肽酰胺),并首次在清醒大鼠中评估了其生物活性。大鼠胰抑制素以10 nmol/kg/h的浓度抑制葡萄糖刺激的胰岛素分泌并升高血糖水平。其相对摩尔效力与猪胰抑制素相当。本研究表明,合成的大鼠胰抑制素具有生物活性,可能在内分泌胰腺中发挥生理作用。
